Avo – Self-Cleaning Fish Tank by Susan Shelley

A young British designer Suzy Shelley has just launched the only fish tank that never needs cleaning, water changing or a new filter. 15-litre fish tank Avo is packed full of innovative technology, enabling fish, plants and bacteria work together to create a balanced micro-ecosystem. All you will ever need to do is top up the water and feed the fish. It’s so effective in fact, the prototype has been going strong for 18 months without a cleaning and still has healthy fish, plants and clear water! Avo also features automated LED lighting specifically optimised for plant photosynthesis and growth, which promotes clear and healthy water. Avo’s unique lighting has the added aesthetic benefit of producing soft red light in the morning, fading to daylight white, to cool blue in the evening. Suzy has just launched a crowd funding campaign on Kickstarter to raise funds to manufacture Avo.

£100K raised. Over 3 year wait. No fish tanks produced and backers left empty handed. Susan Shelley refuses to communicate. Just walks off into the sunset with the cash leaving those that trusted and supported her very disappointed. Unprofessional, unethical and immoral. What a charade and a fraud.

What a joke. Project launched in 2014, raised £100K to make the fish tanks and as at start of 2018, those investors are still waiting for the tanks. In the meantime Susah Shelley is refusing to provide refunds but has taken £55K out of the company. Hard to believe this is still being promoted.

THIS WAS A LIE!!!
The project was funded but they never delivered the product! The young British designer took the money, and didn’t deliver anything. She did not give any updates on the project’s page since December and she’s ignoring the backers asking for updates.
